Doctors live in fear that their careers will be ended if they advise against anal sodomy—which turns out to be pretty good medical advice

Just in case there was any lingering doubt that Planned Parenthood
doesn’t give a hoot about “women’s health”—or anyone’s health, for that
matter—the abortion giant is now on record favoring the “right” of
HIV-positive people not to disclose their status to sex partners.

From their pamphlet, the ironically titled “Happy, Healthy, and Hot”:
“Your decision about whether to disclose may change with different
people and situations. You have the right to decide if, when, and how to
disclose your HIV status.”

Surely the pamphlet only means friends and co-workers though, right?
Actually, no. The pamphlet continues: “Some countries have laws that say
people living with HIV must tell their sexual partner(s) about their
status before having sex, even if they use condoms or only engage in
sexual activity with a low risk of giving HIV to someone else. These
laws violate the rights of people living with HIV by forcing them to
disclose or face the possibility of criminal charges.” The pamphlet then
encourages the reader to get involved to change such laws “that violate
your rights.”

So basically Planned Parenthood is encouraging people to pull a
Charlie Sheen; or at least condoning it. The renowned actor revealed in
November that he had known for about four years that he is HIV positive,
though he claimed that he always informed his sex partners of his
status, with “no exceptions.” This came as something of a surprise to
Bree Olson, Sheen’s former live-in girlfriend, who thankfully tested
negative. … “He doesn’t even value my life,” said Olson about Sheen’s revelation. No kidding, cupcake.

Her only purpose was to serve his pleasure. If she had to die so that
he could get his rocks off, that was, in Sheen’s calculation, a price
worth paying. …

It’s hard to believe that such selfish people as Charlie Sheen really
exist but they do and they’re actually a lot more common than you might
imagine. The fact that Planned Parenthood, which masquerades as a
reputable medical organization, endorses the “right” not to inform sex
partners of HIV status tells us that the camel has already gotten its
nose under the tent. Though the attitude may not yet be mainstream, that
doesn’t mean it could never be.

The author and journalist Randy Shilts, who died of AIDS in 1994,
shed light on the homosexual community’s culture of denial in his 1987
book “And the Band Played On”. Among Shilts’s premises is that
homosexual political leaders talked a great game when it came to
combatting AIDS but their action was lacking. They refused to consider
any countermeasure to the AIDS “epidemic” that might hamper their sex
lives. The most they would do is promote the use of condoms. They
refused to speak out against the hookup culture that pervaded and
continues to pervade the male homosexual community or, heaven forbid, to
tell male homosexuals to keep their butt cheeks together. …

One can almost understand the rationale behind this kind of reckless
denialism. The disease was discovered in 1981, just a few short years
after male homosexuals had established sexually “liberated” enclaves in
places like New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. …

In the mid-1980s, the author David Horowitz, who was then on a
journey from the Marxist Left to conservative Right, sat down with Randy
Shilts to discuss AIDS, the burgeoning menace then stalking San
Francisco. What Shilts told him was shocking. As Horowitz wrote in his
biography, “Radical Son”: “According to Shilts, it was the gay leaders
themselves who suppressed the research findings, along with the fact—now
generally accepted by medical officials—that AIDS was a sexually
transmitted disease. This was difficult to believe, but when I checked
Shilts’s story, it turned out to be true. The Stonewall Gay Democratic
Club, one of the political powers in the community, had summarized the
politically correct view prevailing among activists in a slogan: ‘Sex
doesn’t cause AIDS—a virus does.’ The activists were afraid that
identifying the disease with promiscuous sex and also with gay sex—95
percent of the cases in San Francisco were among homosexual males—would
stigmatize the ‘gay life-style’ and create a political backlash.”

Yeah, and we wouldn’t want to stigmatize the “gay” lifestyle, would
we? I don’t know what’s wrong with stigmatizing a filthy sexual practice
rife with adverse health consequences, including AIDS of course, but
also gonorrhea, anal cancer, and intestinal parasites. We stigmatize
smoking, why wouldn’t we stigmatize anal sex? Put me down as pro-stigma.

Unfortunately, male homosexuals whine that their rights are being
violated whenever anyone looks askance at butt sex, the activity that
apparently defines them. They demand not only the right to engage in
dangerous, unhealthy sexual behavior, but the right to positive
affirmation as well.

Sadly, the medical community seems to be fulfilling their wish.
Doctors these days live in fear that their careers will be summarily
ended if they advise against anal sodomy—which is pretty good medical
advice, no matter how you slice it. To cite just one example, consider
Dr. Paul Church, a well-respected urologist who was recently fired from
his position at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) in Boston
for opposing the homosexual lifestyle on moral and medical grounds. His
story began in 2009 when BIDMC sent out an email inviting staff members
to ride on the hospital-sponsored float in an upcoming “pride” parade.
Dr. Church responded with a mass email of his own, asking why a hospital
would endorse a behavior with undeniable health consequences that
include death. “If a medical scientist cannot raise research that the
federal government’s Centers for Disease Control clearly shows
homosexual conduct as harmful,” he concluded, “then that means that your
health, my health, medical science — all of that is being called into
question simply because of a political agenda.”

He was right, of course, though it’s dangerous to be right when your
employer is wrong. The torrent of homosexual outrage came down on Dr.
Church hard. After a lengthy fight with BIDMC, he lost his job.
He may lose his positions at other Boston-area medical centers,
including Harvard Medical School, where he also practices medicine.

Church was essentially fired for being a good doctor, for staying
true to the Hippocratic Oath he took to “do no harm” at a time when all
the other doctors around him had abandoned theirs. “Truly caring for the
well-being of individuals requires telling them the truth about their
choices,” said Church. “The hospital does this on less controversial
issues such as smoking and diet.” Yes, that’s true, but smokers and fat
people don’t have well-financed and well-organized political apparatuses
and they don’t crush people who get in their way. That’s the
difference.

The homofascists had to make an example out of somebody and they
chose Dr. Church. The chilling effect will be felt far and wide—no one
will dare point out that homosexuals are perverting medicine’s core
mission, though they plainly are.

We’re living in an era of hedonism, in which a substantial portion of
the population careens from disco to disco and from orgasm to orgasm.
Not all such hedonists are homosexuals, of course—there is always the
occasional Charlie Sheen—but a significant number of them are. There is
nothing they won’t do just to keep the good times rolling. They don’t
care about other people’s health or safety, nor do they care about facts
or truth. They care only about their own pleasure and they will stop at
nothing to secure it.
